We're all making assumptions, and you are like the rest of us.

For example, you are talking about Nintendo as if they were like the CIA or something like that, not allowing AMD or Nvidia talk about their machines, when that's not how it works. The reason Nvidia hasn't said anything about their Tegra X2 chip powering a new console is actually rather simple: they won't talk about design wins for a product that they still haven't officially unveiled.

It's you that said that Nvidia won't unveil the chip until the Hot Chips conference, so don't expect anything from them or Nintendo (who in turn won't talk about a console powered by a processor from another company that still hasn't revealed it either).

Bussiness 101: Either It works however the contract sais it works or it will work like the court sais it does. Secrecy is not illegal.

So what you're saying is that Nintendo can forbid AMD or Nvidia to talk about their business plans even if that doesn't translate into revealing the NX? AMD can't say that they are working on a new chip design? Or Nvidia?

Discretion is one thing, a complete blackout is another.
